SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The recall skill prevents you from losing track of prior decisions, conversations, or file context when the information is no longer present in your current chat window.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Semantic verbatim memory search: Retrieves exact prior wording from MemPalace using semantic matching, suitable for “what did we decide” moments.
  • MCP-first tool usage with fallback: Uses the mempalace MCP server tools when available, otherwise falls back to a local shell command.
  • Mission-grade memory controls: Supports quick search, baseline context loading, status inspection, and opportunistic mining of new files or prior session checkpoints.

Quick Start

Use the recall skill to find the exact wording behind a past decision by telling the assistant: /recall <your query>.

FAQPage Schema
How do I retrieve past conversation context and verbatim decisions from Claude Code sessions?

You can retrieve past conversation context by using semantic search to query your MemPalace memory store. This returns top matched verbatim chunks complete with timestamps, ensuring you see the exact prior wording without paraphrasing.

What is semantic verbatim memory recall and how does it search past decisions?

Semantic verbatim memory recall matches the meaning of your query to retrieve exact prior wording from stored conversation context. It finds semantically relevant past decisions and returns the original verbatim chunks with their timestamps.

Do I need the mempalace MCP server to use semantic search for long-term memory?

No, you do not need the mempalace MCP server to use semantic search. The system uses mempalace-mcp tools when registered but automatically falls back to a local MemPalace CLI if the MCP server is unavailable.

How do I find what was decided in a previous chat when the conversation context is gone?

To find what was decided when conversation context is gone, use a semantic search query for your long-term memory. This searches stored MemPalace history for semantically relevant past decisions and retrieves the exact verbatim text.

Can I load baseline context and mine new files during a Claude Code session startup?

Yes, you can load baseline context and mine new files during a Claude Code session startup. The semantic memory recall supports session wake-up, status checking, and opportunistic mining of prior session checkpoints and new files.
